Ella created one of those rare weekends that stays with you long after you leave. As an artist, coach, and mindfulness facilitator, I came to learn therapeutic art tools for my work—and I left with so much more.

Work with Ella, you won’t be disappointed. I joined her on her last therapeutic arts training retreat and it was educational, relaxing, fun, full of connection, effective, therapeutic, we had delicious and nutritious food, and more! Ella is skilled at what she does and I’d recommend her retreats or any of her other work. I look forward to reconnecting with her soon!

I feel prepared, inspired, and aligned with my m... read more

5 Stars --- I have been going to Ella's virtual Art Therapy group for a year. When I moved in 2021, I looked up Art Therapist and was guided to Ella. I was worried about the cost at the time so I waited a while and would frequently go back to it until finally, last year, I took the jump and reached out to join the Art Therapy group. This has been one of the best decisions I've made for my mental health. This past year, I was faced with many challenges and having this weekly space to consistently go to, supported me exponenti... read more
